In The Court of Appeals Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont ________________ NO. 09-17-00397-CR ________________ JEFFREY ANDREW BRYANT, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee __________________________________________________________________ On Appeal from the 258th District Court Polk County, Texas Trial Cause No. 25142 __________________________________________________________________ MEMORANDUM OPINION A jury found appellant Jeffrey Andrew Bryant guilty of possession of child pornography. The trial court assessed Bryant’s punishment as an habitual felony offender at twenty-five years of imprisonment. Bryant’s appellate counsel filed a brief that presents counsel’s professional evaluation of the record and concludes the appeal is frivolous. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978). On June 11, 2018, we granted an extension of time for Bryant to file a pro se brief. We received no response from Bryant. We reviewed the appellate record, and we agree with counsel’s conclusion that no arguable issues support an appeal. Therefore, we find it unnecessary to order appointment of new counsel to re-brief the appeal. Cf. Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 511 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). We affirm the trial court’s judgment. 1 AFFIRMED. ______________________________ STEVE McKEITHEN Chief Justice Submitted on September 19, 2018 Opinion Delivered September 26, 2018 Do Not Publish Before McKeithen, C.J., Horton and Johnson, JJ. 1 Bryant may challenge our decision in this case by filing a petition for discretionary review. See Tex. R. App. P. 68.
